The Punjab Government is planning a gradual restoration of the original names of Lahore's historic neighborhoods, roads, and landmarks. This initiative, part of a broader heritage preservation push, aims to acknowledge the city's layered history. For instance, areas like Krishan Nagar (renamed Islampura), Dharampura (Mustafabad), and Ram Gali (Rehman Gali) may revert to their pre-renaming names, which many residents have continued to use in daily conversation. The move is seen as correcting a historical overcorrection and reconnecting with Lahore's rich cultural identity.
